A group of students wants to determine the internal resistance of a battery. They connect the battery to a variable resistor. Th

e students measure the potenial differnce across the battery as a function of the current throught the battery as they vary the resistance. Which of the following analyses of the data could be used to determine the internal resistance of the battery?
A. Divide the potential difference across the battery by the current through it for each data point. The average of these calculations gives the internal resistance of the battery.
B. Graph the potential difference across the battery as a function of the current through it. Extrapolate to find the y- intercept and divide this by the average of the current measurements to find the internal resistance of the battery.
C. Find the best-fit straight line for a graph of potential difference across the battery as a function of the current through it. The absolute value of the slope represents the internal resistance of the battery.
D. This data cannot be analyzed to give the internal resistance of the battery, because the potential difference across the battery does not depend on the current.

Answer:

The answer is "Option C"

Explanation:

Ohm's Rule we remember V = I\times R

It looks like the sample is drawn y=mx while m is curve slope

The slope of the graph is its resistance if they draw a graph v vs I.

However, the internal battery presence resistance can be modified as the straight line equation

y = mx -c

where c is y-intercept:

E = I(R+r) \\\\ E = IR+ Ir\\\\E = V + Ir\\\\V = E- Ir\\\\V = -Ir+E

R is really the internal battery resistance to draw graph V vs I, the slope is internal resistance to the negative slope cure.

Which forces are shown on a free body diagram?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

What is a Free Body Diagram?

The free body diagram helps you understand and solve static and dynamic problem involving forces. It is a diagram including all forces acting on a given object without the other object in the system. You need to first understand all the forces acting on the object and then represent these force by arrows in the direction of the force to be drawn.

A satellite at a particular point along an elliptical orbit has a gravitational potential energy of 5100 MJ with respect to Eart
serious [3.7K]

To solve this problem we will apply the theorem given in the conservation of energy, by which we have that it is conserved and that in terms of potential and kinetic energy, in their initial moment they must be equal to the final potential and kinetic energy. This is,

E_{initial} = E_{final}

PE_{initial}+KE_{initial} = PE_{final}+KE_{final}

Replacing the 5100MJ for satellite as initial potential energy, 4200MJ for initial kinetic energy and 5700MJ for final potential energy we have that

KE_{final} = (PE_{initial}+KE_{initial} )-PE_{final}

KE_{final} = (5100+4200)-5700

KE_{final} = 3600MJ

Therefore the final kinetic energy is 3600MJ

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

K' = 1777.777  J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 40 kg

v= 15 m/s

K=1000

Given that kinetic energy(K) varies with mass(m) and velocity(v)

 K= C(mv²)

Where

C= Constant

m=mass

v=velocity

When

m = 40 kg ,v= 15 m/s ,K=1000

 K= C(mv²)

1000 = C( 40 x 15²)

C=0.111111

When m = 40 kg and v= 20 m/s

K' = C(mv²)

K= 0.1111 x (40 x 20²)

K' = 1777.777  J
